10 TRAINING COURSE ON ROAD WORKS SAFETY NCTS Tel. Nos. (0632) loc 3552/

11 TRAINING COURSE ON ROAD WORKS SAFETY Rationale Generally, road traffic causes significant dangers to people working on the roads. On the other hand, roadworks can put other road users in a dangerous situation. It is in this context that Department of Public Works and Highways developed the Road Works Safety Manual for use throughout the Philippines. This manual shall be used at roadwork and bridgework sites when providing signage and traffic management to warn, guide and control traffic. The principles in the manual aim to maximize the safety of workers and the public during roadworks. The in cooperation with the Department of Public Works and Highways offered this Road Works Safety Course to provide a uniform approach to worksite traffic management through the use of standard signs and layouts that can be applied tomost road work situations. Target Participants Municipal/City planners, Municipal/City engineers, traffic engineers, transportation planners, local and national government personnel involved in transportation and related functions Objectives At the end of the training, the participants will be able : 1. To enhance their knowledge and skills about traffic management and road safety during road maintenance and construction 2. To standardize traffic control on worksites using the Road Works Safety Manual of the Department of Public Works and Highways; and 3. To demonstrate safe working methods into actual road works situations.

12 TRAINING COURSE ON ROAD SAFETY AUDIT NCTS Tel. Nos. (0632) loc 3552/

13 TRAINING COURSE ON ROAD SAFETY AUDIT Rationale Road network expansion, increased motorization and urbanization in the country have been accompanied by a surge in road accidents leading to road injuries and fatalities. Today, road traffic injuries tops the list of leading causes of deaths. Road Safety Audit was established in order to prevent such road traffic incidents. This is a formal process where an independent and qualified audit team examines and reports on the traffic accident potential and safety performance of a future road project or a traffic management scheme on an existing road. RSA has the greatest potential for improving safety and is most cost effective when it is applied to a road or traffic design before the project is built. It is in this context that Training Course on Road Safety Audit was offered by UP-NCTS, which has a pool of experts in the field of transportation planning and traffic engineering and management. This course will use existing course materials and resources to maximize hands-on experience and ensure internalization as well as retention of the concepts being presented. The training gives an overview on principles and fundamentals of road safety, statistics/trends, causes and factors of crashes, road safety audit concepts, accident analysis and various road safety facilities. Basics of geometric design of highway sections and their applications together with intersection design elements are also presented. Target Participants Municipal/City planners, Municipal/City engineers, traffic engineers, transportation planners, local and national government personnel involved in transportation and related functions Objectives At the end of the training, the participants will be able : 1. To become familiar with road safety issues relevant to local traffic context; 2. To enhance their knowledge and skills in improving road safety; and 3. To establish professional and friendly relationships among experts and other participants. Course Outline Module 1. Fundamentals of Road Safety Audit Module 2. Road Safety Facilities Module 3.
